Additional components include the vehicle sidewall (1) and hood opening (2).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Klappenanordnung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a flap arrangement according to the preamble of Claim 1.

Betrachtet man den bevorzugten Anwendungsfall der Erfindung, nämlich als Klappenanordnung zum Abdecken bzw. Freigeben von karosserieseitigen Durchtrittsöffnungen für individuell bewegbare Gestängeteile von Cabrioverdecks, wie sie im Kraftfahrzeug Einsatz finden, so muß die Klappenanordnung so ausgelegt sein, daß sie zumindest drei Zustände des Verdecks berücksichtigt: Bei geöffnetem Verdeck muß die Klappenanordnung die zumindest eine Durchtrittsöffnung für das Gestänge des Verdecks verschließen. Während des Öffnens des Verdecks dagegen muß die Klappenanordnung den Durchtritt für alle Gestängebestandteile freigeben. Bei geschlossenem Verdeck dagegen ragen nur einzelne Gestängebestandteile beispielsweise aus einer Seitenwand des Fahrzeugs nach oben heraus, so daß der Durchtrittsquerschnitt für die anderen Gestängebestandteile durch die Klappenanordnung abgedeckt werden muß.Considering the preferred application of the invention, namely as Flap arrangement for covering or releasing body-side Passage openings for individually movable rod parts of convertible tops, like them find use in motor vehicles, the flap arrangement must be designed so that it takes into account at least three states of the convertible top: When the convertible top is open it must the flap arrangement the at least one passage opening for the linkage of the Close the hood. On the other hand, while opening the hood, the Flap arrangement open the passage for all boom components. At closed roof, on the other hand, only individual rod components protrude for example from a side wall of the vehicle upwards, so that the Passage cross section for the other rod components through the Flap arrangement must be covered.

Man kann diese verschiedenen Zustände verständlicherweise durch eine relativ große Anzahl individuell gesteuerter Klappen berücksichtigen. Dabei wird insbesondere der Steueraufwand jedoch unangenehm hoch.One can understandably understand these different states by a relatively large one Take into account the number of individually controlled dampers. In particular, the Tax expense, however, uncomfortably high.

Der Erfindung liegt demgemäß die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine gattungsgemäße Klappenanordnung zu schaffen, die die eben erläuterten unterschiedlichen Betriebszustände mit minimalem Steueraufwand berücksichtigt.The invention is accordingly based on the object, a generic Flap arrangement to create the different just explained Operating conditions with minimal tax expenditure taken into account.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung dieser Aufgabe besteht in den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs, vorteilhafte Ausbildungen der Erfindung beschreiben die Unteransprüche. The inventive solution to this problem consists in the characterizing Features of the main claim describe advantageous embodiments of the invention the subclaims.  

Die Erfindung erfordert in vorteilhafter Weise also nur eine direkte Steuerung, nämlich für die ortsfest angelenkte Klappe, also in dem bevorzugten Einsatzfall die am Fahrzeugaufbau angelenkte Klappe. Die Steuerung ist in ansich bekannter Weise so ausgebildet, daß sie diese Klappe zwischen einer Schließlage und einer Öffnungsstellung etwa um 90° zu verschwenken gestattet. Die zumindest eine weitere Klappe der Klappenanordnung ist nicht am Fahrzeugaufbau (um bei diesem Beispiel zu bleiben) gelagert, sondern mittels eines zweiten Scharniers an der erstgenannten Klappe. Dieses zweite Scharnier ist mit einer Streckfeder bestückt, die die Klappen in einer gemeinsamen Ebene, also fluchtend, auszurichten sucht. Sofern also auf die andere Klappe keine zusätzlichen Kräfte wirken, fluchtet diese mit der erstgenannten Klappe, d. h. wenn diese durch einen Befehl der Steuerung in ihre Öffnungsstellung geschwenkt ist, gibt auch die andere Klappe die Öffnung zum Durchtritt des Gestänges frei. Wird durch die Steuerung die erstgenannte Klappe in ihre Schließstellung bewegt und wirken keine zusätzlichen Kräfte auf die andere Klappe, so liegt auch diese in ihrer Schließstellung, nämlich wiederum in einer Ebene mit der erstgenannten Klappe. Sofern aber Gestängeteile gegen die andere Klappe drücken bzw. sich diese an Gestängeteilen abstützt, ist sie bei in Schließlage befindlicher erstgenannter Klappe relativ zu dieser in ihre Öffnungsstellung verschwenkt. Die andere Klappe erfordert also keine individuelle Steuerung; eine Steuerung ist nur der erstgenannten Klappe zugeordnet.The invention therefore advantageously only requires direct control, namely for the fixed hinged flap, in the preferred application the Vehicle body hinged flap. The control is in a manner known per se trained that this flap between a closed position and a Permitted to pivot open position by approximately 90 °. The at least one more The hatch of the hatch arrangement is not on the vehicle body (in this example, too remain) stored, but by means of a second hinge on the former Flap. This second hinge is equipped with an extension spring that holds the flaps in seeks to align on a common level, i.e. in alignment. If so on other flap no additional forces act, this aligns with the former Flap, d. H. if this is in the open position by a command from the control is pivoted, the other flap also gives the opening for the passage of the boom free. If the controller moves the first-mentioned flap to its closed position and if no additional forces act on the other flap, then this is also in their Closed position, namely again in one plane with the first-mentioned flap. Provided but push rod parts against the other flap or these on rod parts supports, it is in the closed position of the first-mentioned flap relative to this in their opening position swiveled. The other flap therefore does not require an individual one Control; a controller is only assigned to the first-mentioned flap.

Verständlicherweise kann auch die andere Klappe an einem ihrem Scharnier gegenüberliegenden Endbereich mit einer weiteren Klappe bestückt sein, und zwar wiederum über ein mit einer Streckfeder bestücktes Scharnier. Dabei muß diese Streckfeder verständlicherweise schwächer als die dem zweiten Scharnier zugeordnete Streckfeder sein, damit bei Kraftbeaufschlagung der dritten Klappe durch ihr zugeordnete Gestängeteile die andere Klappe, die also unmittelbar an die erstgenannte Klappe anschließt, in ihrer Schließstellung verbleiben kann.Understandably, the other flap can also be attached to one of its hinges opposite end area with another flap, namely again via a hinge equipped with a stretch spring. This must The extension spring is understandably weaker than that assigned to the second hinge Be extension spring so that when the third valve is acted upon by its associated Linkage parts the other flap, that is, directly to the first-mentioned flap connects, can remain in their closed position.

In der Regel wird man die Scharniere parallel zueinander anordnen, so daß sich gleichsam einer Reihe von aufeinanderfolgenden Klappen ergibt. Es ist aber auch möglich, beispielsweise die erstgenannte Klappe an zumindest einem Endbereich, der senkrecht zu ihrem Scharnier verläuft, über das zweite Scharnier mit einer anderen Klappe zu bestücken. As a rule, the hinges will be arranged parallel to each other so that results in a series of successive flaps. It is also possible, for example the first-mentioned flap on at least one end region, the runs perpendicular to their hinge, over the second hinge with another Flap to populate.  

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung für den bevorzugten Einsatzfall wird im folgenden anhand der Zeichnung erläutert, deren Fig. 1 den linken hinteren Eckbereich eines Kraftfahrzeugs wiedergibt, während die Fig. 2 und 3 die Schnittansichten gemäß II-II bei verschiedenen Betätigungszuständen des im übrigen nicht gezeichneten Cabrioverdecks veranschaulichen.An embodiment of the invention for the preferred application is explained below with reference to the drawing, FIG. 1 shows the left rear corner area of a motor vehicle, while FIGS. 2 and 3 show the sectional views according to II-II in various operating states of the convertible top, which is otherwise not shown illustrate.

Betrachtet man zunächst Fig. 1, so ist in der Seitenwand 1 des Kraftfahrzeugs die Durchtrittsöffnung 2 für ein hier nicht gezeichnetes Cabrioverdeck vorgesehen. In Fig. 1 ist angenommen, daß das Verdeck geöffnet ist; dann ist die Gestängeaustrittsöffnung 2 durch die allgemein mit 3 bezeichnete Klappenanordnung verschlossen. Erfindungsgemäß enthält die Klappenanordnung die Klappe 4, die über das Scharnier 5 (siehe Fig. 2 und 3) ortsfest am Fahrzeugaufbau schwenkbar gehalten ist, und die andere Klappe 6, die über das Scharnier 7 an den dem Scharnier 5 gegenüberliegenden Endbereich der erstgenannten Klappe 4 angelenkt ist. Dem Scharnier 7 ist eine nicht gezeichnete, da an sich bekannte Streckfeder zugeordnet, und zwar in solcher Anordnung und Ausbildung, daß beim Fehlen einer weiteren auf die andere Klappe 6 wirkenden Kraft diese mit der Klappe 4 fluchtet, wie dies die Fig. 1 und 2 zeigen.Referring first to Fig. 1, so in the side wall 1 of the motor vehicle the passage opening 2 is intended for a non-signed here convertible top. In Fig. 1 it is assumed that the top is open; then the rod outlet opening 2 is closed by the flap arrangement, generally designated 3. According to the invention, the flap arrangement contains the flap 4 , which is held pivotably on the vehicle body via the hinge 5 (see FIGS. 2 and 3), and the other flap 6 , which is connected via the hinge 7 to the end region of the former flap 4 opposite the hinge 5 is articulated. The hinge 7 is assigned a not shown, since known stretching spring, in such an arrangement and design that in the absence of a further force acting on the other flap 6 this is aligned with the flap 4 , as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 demonstrate.

Für die Erfindung wichtig ist die Tatsache, daß nur der Klappe 4 ein Steuerantrieb 8 zugeordnet ist, der momentenerzeugend direkt an ihr angreift (hier wird er durch eine Stange symbolisiert), während die andere Klappe 6 gleichsam schwebend unter der Wirkung der Streckfeder ohne weitere Steuereinrichtungen an der erstgenannten Klappe gehalten ist.What is important for the invention is the fact that only the flap 4 is assigned a control drive 8 , which acts directly on it to generate torque (here it is symbolized by a rod), while the other flap 6, as it were, floating under the action of the tension spring without further control devices is held on the former flap.

Beim Öffnen des Verdecks ist es erforderlich, daß die Öffnung 2 zum Durchtritt von Gestängebestandteilen 9 und 10 vollständig freigegeben wird. Fig. 2 veranschaulicht diesen Betriebszustand: Durch Aufbringen einer Kraft bzw. eines Moments über den Steuerantrieb 8 ist die Klappenanordnung 3 in ihrer Gesamtheit, d. h. mit fluchtenden Klappen 4 und 6, um etwa 90° in der Darstellung der Fig. 2 entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn verschwenkt, so daß die Durchtrittsöffnung 2 vollständig freigegeben ist. Ist das Verdeck vollständig geöffnet, so erfolgt eine Rückschwenkung in die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Schließlage der Klappenanordnung 3, wiederum durch Aufbringen eines Steuerbefehls über den Steuerantrieb 8. When opening the top, it is necessary that the opening 2 for the passage of linkage components 9 and 10 is completely cleared. FIG. 2 illustrates this operating state: by applying a force or a moment via the control drive 8 , the flap arrangement 3 in its entirety, ie with flaps 4 and 6 in alignment, is pivoted counterclockwise by approximately 90 ° in the illustration in FIG. 2 , so that the passage opening 2 is completely released. If the convertible top is fully opened, it is pivoted back into the closed position of the flap arrangement 3 shown in FIG. 1, again by applying a control command via the control drive 8 .

Bei geschlossenem Verdeck ergibt sich dagegen die Notwendigkeit, die Öffnung 2 nur zum Durchtritt der Gestängeteile 10 zu öffnen, dagegen den Bereich der Öffnung 2, der dem Durchtritt der Gestängeteile 9 zugeordnet ist, abzudecken. Fig. 3 zeigt, daß sich die Klappe 4 in ihrer Schließlage befindet, dagegen die andere Klappe 6 durch Abstützung am Dachhimmel 11 - der Verdeckstoff ist bei 12 angedeutet - in ihrer individuellen Öffnungsstellung gehalten ist, in der sie entgegen der Wirkung der Streckfeder des Scharniers 7 relativ zu der Klappe 4 in der Darstellung der Fig. 3 entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn verschwenkt ist.When the convertible top is closed, on the other hand, there is the need to open the opening 2 only for the passage of the rod parts 10 , but to cover the area of the opening 2 which is assigned to the passage of the rod parts 9 . Fig. 3 shows that the flap 4 is in its closed position, on the other hand, the other flap 6 by support on the headliner 11 - the top fabric is indicated at 12 - is held in its individual opening position, in which it is against the action of the spring of the hinge 7 is pivoted counterclockwise relative to the flap 4 in the illustration in FIG. 3.

Verständlicherweise muß die Kraft der Streckfeder des Scharniers 7 begrenzt sein, damit die Klappe 4 auch bei in der Position gemäß Fig. 3 befindlicher anderer Klappe 6 in ihrer Schließstellung verbleibt.Understandably, the force of the tension spring of the hinge 7 must be limited so that the flap 4 remains in its closed position even when the other flap 6 is in the position shown in FIG. 3.

Wie bereits eingangs erläutert, gestattet die Erfindung das Vorsehen weiterer Klappen, die ebenfalls zur Abdeckung bzw. Freigabe von Teilbereichen der Durchtrittsöffnung 2 oder von einzelnen Durchtrittsöffnungen zugeordnet sind und die durch Einsatz von Scharnieren und Streckfedern definierter Kraftauslegung allein durch Abstützung an Gestängeteilen individuell verschwenkt werden können. Auch dann ist nur ein einziger Steuerantrieb 8 erforderlich.As already explained at the beginning, the invention allows the provision of further flaps, which are also assigned to cover or release partial areas of the passage opening 2 or individual passage openings and which can be pivoted individually by using hinges and extension springs only by supporting them on rod parts . Even then, only a single control drive 8 is required.
